Dental Sealants - Rocky Ridge Dental

What are Dental Sealants?

Dental sealants are thin, protective coatings applied to the chewing surfaces of molars and premolars—areas where cavities often form. These grooves can trap food and bacteria, making them hard to clean with regular brushing. Sealants create a smooth surface that blocks out debris and helps prevent tooth decay before it starts.

Sealants are especially beneficial for children and teens, but adults with deep grooves can also benefit. At Rocky Ridge Family Dental, we offer sealants as part of our commitment to preventive care for families. It’s a fast, affordable treatment—especially with our membership plan that saves you 35% on all services. Click here to learn more about how sealants can keep your smile strong.

Cavity Prevention and Protective Treatments for All Ages in Roseville, CA

Dental sealants are a preventive treatment designed to protect your smile from decay before it starts. As part of our comprehensive approach to long-term oral health, Rocky Ridge Family Dental proudly offers:

General Dentistry

Routine exams and cleanings are essential for monitoring oral health and identifying teeth that may benefit from sealants. Our general dental care is the foundation of preventive treatment.

Dental Fillings

If a tooth already shows signs of early decay, a tooth-colored filling may be required before applying a sealant to protect the surrounding area.

Dental Scaling

A clean tooth surface is essential for proper sealant adhesion. Dental scaling removes plaque and tartar buildup to ensure sealants are applied successfully.

Emergency Dentistry

If a sealant chips or wears off unexpectedly, our emergency care can quickly reapply or repair it to maintain protection against cavities.

Sealants can last up to 10 years with proper care. We check them during regular cleanings to ensure they're still intact and protective.

Do sealants hurt?

Not at all! The procedure is quick, painless, and requires no drilling or anesthesia. It's one of the easiest ways to prevent future dental problems.

Are dental sealants safe for kids?

Absolutely. Dental sealants are approved by the American Dental Association (ADA) and are a common part of preventive pediatric dentistry.

Can adults get dental sealants?

Yes. Adults with healthy teeth and deep grooves can benefit from sealants to reduce their risk of decay, especially if they’ve had frequent cavities in the past.
